Taking the sword, Vivian could feel that it immediately stirred something inside of her. Focusing on this, she felt a connection growing between her and the blade.
This connection was similar to how players bound themselves to their weapons. It was not something added by the system for players, rather it was how magic weapons functioned. It was the only way to gain access to a weapon's hidden abilities. Vivian already knew this, but this connection felt different.
As Vivian focused on it, she could feel the weapon wanting to bind with her. As if it had a will of its own. It pulled at her soul. Vivian did not fight it, instead, she welcomed it. As soon as she did, she could feel the sword becoming one with her.
Feeling a heatwave hit him, Eldrian was brought back from his thoughts on the XP needed for his current level. Looking up he saw to his wonder, Vivian's sword aflame.
